Thuis in de Zeilen
Meerstad

De Zeilen
Neighbourhood De Zeilen is located in the northeast of Meerstad. De Zeilen includes islands in the Woldmeer, tree-lined avenues, and a diverse landscape of open and wooded spaces. The residential character is unique: it feels both expansive and spacious, yet also intimate and like a village. De Zeilen is framed by the Groningen landscape. This water-rich neighbourhood will feature over 600 homes in total, comprising island plots, terraced houses, social housing, apartments and more. In addition to the 35 owner-occupied houses, VanWonen is developing 38 social rental apartments for housing association Nijestee.

Living near the water or on the waterfront
A home in De Zeilen means living near the water or on the waterfront. The neighbourhood is located between the lock system and the Harksteder Broeklanden nature reserve. With this project, VanWonen offers a diverse range of housing options: terraced houses, semi-detached houses and one detached house. All 35 houses feature a garden, with several of them bordering directly onto the water.

Varied streetscape
Thuis in de Zeilen offers a richly varied streetscape, creating an urban vibe on the inland lake. All homes will have lovely details and accents in a wide range of variations, making each home unique. Each home is built bio-based, with timber frame construction. An environmentally friendly way of building that perfectly aligns with the sustainable ambitions of this project.
